Pep Guardiola's team came back from 2-0 to impose 3-2, but benefited from dubious decisions as VAR was not used
Adrian Durham believes Manchester City should replay their FA Cup match with Swansea City.
City took advantage of a dubious penalty and the replays showed that the winner of Sergio Aguero was offside while City came back from 2 to 0 to impose 3-2.

However, if VAR had been used, the story would have been different.
The system was used this year in the FA Cup, but only on the grounds of the Premier League.
The match having taken place at the Stadium of Liberty, it was not used and the boss of City, Pep Guardiola, is even excused for the benefit of this decision.
But Durham, host of talkSPORT, thinks that Guardiola and City should apologize and "do the right thing" by offering a replay to the championship club.
"They should go to Swansea and say it's not right, do you want a recovery?"

Durham said, "In the past, we had suggested that a game had to be replayed because of a risky decision.
"I totally understand all those who say you can not do it because there were other decisions made earlier in the game and it would happen all the time.
"I think this one is slightly different: Man City defeating Swansea 3-2 after being beaten 2-0.
"There was a dubious penalty in there, but more than that, we can see that Aguero is offside for the winning goal, but there is no VAR and there was a VAR in two others quarterfinals.

"For me, this debate is absolutely valid. If Manchester City, whose resources we know, has all the best resources in the country, nothing has been done, but to reward Swansea and give him what he deserves, he should visit them and say, "This was not correct, did not exist do you want a resumption of the game? "
Durham co-host Darren Gough did not agree to replay it.
He said, "Have you lost the plot? So what are they going to say? I will tell you what we are going to do, we are sorry for Swansea, so we will have a recovery. We will call them and tell them we are doing well, let's be honest about it and give a replay. "

"This is not the case. It just can not happen. It's ridiculous with all the games that Manchester City has to play for the quad and you want them to play an extra match just because a penalty decision was their turn? "
Durham said, "First of all, it's the right thing to do. It's the right thing to do for Manchester City. I think they know it and everyone knows it. "
Gough said, "What I would do if I was Swansea, it's a complaint to the FA because Swansea has all the facilities needed to use the VAR at Liberty.

"But what I did not know is that the FA will only use it in Premier League stadiums, but Swansea has a Premier League stadium.
Durham said, "This can not happen every week or every year in the cup. It's a set of extraordinary circumstances, and everything you just mentioned, everything about VAR, is totally unfair. It's totally impracticable and cost Swansea what would have been an incredible extension and a potential shock in the FA Cup. "
